Given depth of talent, I'm more disappointed about Russia than Norway.

Yeah it's pretty crazy when you think the Moroccan rider in the world champ RR
was flagged out of the race for failing to keep up.

On the bright side, that chick riding for (not from) St Kitts &
Nevis that wanted to ride in the Olympics didn't make the cut.
Although she did get to ride the Worlds TT.

Maybe she could console herself by getting a ride on Anton's knob instead.

Olympic competition is in effect a world championship, so, unlike the

I'm not saying Norway didn't get the shaft, however I think Russia got
it worse.

Carl - your protest of riding a bike around the Olympic Village is ill-
conceived

Better to stop drinking fluoridated water - which is also a commie

I agree. On another note I see that Luxembourg only got two riders. I wonder who
